This is the tale of our own Wandering Jew.  Mee Yong Joo makes every dining experience an adventure.  And his adventure often starts from the moment he leaves his house trying to find the Chinese restaurant that we’re eating at!  We often make fun of Mee Yong Joo  (good naturedly, of course) because he’s always getting lost.  Invariably, he’s always the ...

Baby, it’s cold outside!!  Today was the first unofficial day of winter… the temperatures dropped in to the single digits, and the strong winds last night made it feel like it was 15 degrees below zero.  Winter is here.  And when it’s frigid like this, I don’t think about Christmas… or, perhaps I do, for I can only think of one ...

Chinese Food and Christmas, a Jewish holiday tradition, observed again this year at Lake Pavilion in Flushing, NY. Read why we won't go back next year!

‘Twas the week before Christmas, when all through the shul Not a creature was stirring, not even a mule; The shmatas were hung by their menorah with care, In hopes that their Christmas Dinner soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds; While visions of Chinese food danced in their heads; And for all our brethren in New York City ...

Happy Independence Day – Chinese Style! Today we celebrate our freedom!  Our freedom of choice.  Our freedom to choose.  And we say when choosing, you should choose only the best Chinese food there is.  It’s Independence Day!  While not a Jewish holiday, I still say forego the BBQ, especially since we’re under hurricane advisory today, and go to your nearest ...

We truly had a meal fit for Kings tonight, and we were treated like Royalty.  From the moment that you see Asian Jewels Seafood Restaurant, you feel like you're walking into some place special.  The place was immaculate.  The service is meticulous.  The waiters are attentive.  And, the bathrooms were the best I have ever seen (though I can only speak of the Men's room). It was no surprise that the restaurant was rated an "A" by the New York City Board of Health.  Now, that might put the fear of tasteless Chinese food into some people's minds.  It did mine.  But that thought was quickly disparaged by the three appetizers we were served. And wait to you read about the entrees we had!
